BASE BALL.
NOTES.

NOTES.
The score of the Hartford game printed
yesterday did not reveal the fact that Schoe-
neck did part of the pitching. He did how
ever and did good work. As the pitchers
quarters have been considerably reduced in
size it could probably be said in truth that
lie filled the box"
The Hartford Post says of the batting of
the Portlands in Fridays game: SIN their
half of the fourth the Hartfords made two
runs and then the Portlands came in to bat.
and they did bat. They sent the sphere
everywhere, run upon run being piled up UNI
til at last when the rain began they had a
total OF fifteen to their credit"
The POrtlands will use all of their bat
teries in the game with the Bowdoins Fast
Day SO that people may see the whole club.
The Portlands practiced a little yesterday
afternoon on the horse car grounds, but il
was so cold and raw that they didn't stay
out long.
Manager Spence will probably take his old
position on I'd base and play there at least
through the first part of the season. In the
games he has so far played he has been at
bat 10 times and got seven hits, only one of
them being base on balls.
1t should have been stated yesterday that
no run had been earned off Quinn since he
has been with the Portlands. The item read
that no run had been got while he was in the

An old lumber operator on the Penobscot,
In talking with the Commercial, referred in
an interesting manner to the changes which
have occurred in the laboring population on
the river during the past few years. "Ten
years ago." he said when we started out
to hire crews for the woods and the drives
we secured all natives of this State and resi-
dents Of our towns along the river. They
were all expert workmen and crew made
up from them commanded the admiration of
all who watched them come down river on
little pine logs or handle the axe in the woods.
Now everything is changed. We are obliged
to hire nearly all our men through the cheap
boarding house keepers of the city and we
seldom get a crew made up of any men ex-
cept Provincals and other foreigners-work-
men both cheap in price and in the quality
OF work. Our own men go away to other
States where they can secure the wages due
expert workmen and which we cannot af-
ford to pay lowing to competition"

which the center of interest is in the
talker. There must be the clash of
counter-interest, the friction of mind
and mind, the shuttle-cock play of
words thrown quickly to and fro.
Anthony Trollope lays down as a
rule for novelists that conversation
should be broken into short sentences;
that no one utterance should be al
lowed over certain number of lines.
The rule holds good beyond the
limits of the novel; short sentences,
unincumbered by parenthesis or ex-
planatory clauses, are absolutely es-
sential to conversation. 1t is not
politeness, the nature of things,
which forbids the speaker to mono
police conversation. Conversation
ceases the moment talk becomes a
monologue. A great man now and
then, like Coleridge, might be per-
mitted to do all the talking; but that
is not conversation which he does,
but something quite different, how
ever valuable.
